Full solved answer →Architectural Design Decisions
What are the activities of architectural design process? Discuss abstract machine model. [5]
The architectural design process includes the following three major activities: - The system is decomposed into major sub-systems. - Communication mechanisms between these sub-systems are identified. - Each sub-system is relatively independent and provides ...
Full solved answer →What is modular decomposition? Discuss object oriented model of decomposition. [5]
Modular decomposition is a process of decomposing subsystems into modules. After the system has been decomposed into subsystems (during system structuring), each subsystem must be further decomposed into lower-level modules such as components, objects, or f...
